...in the middle of norfolk while i wait for my phone to be fixed. 40 cents a minute for internet access at kinko's?! no way, suckers. free internet access at compusa on a sexysexy imac g5? yes, please. it'd be nice if it stopped raining tho...
(edit: 5.50 pm)
fucking phone still doesn't fucking work. of course, it would be on a night when i'm expecting a rather important call. dammit... |

went to see blonde redhead (and interpol) at the norva that other night. blonde redhead were awesome (as expected), interpol were pretty damn boring. i mean, they're musically a great band, but they've got that whole non-performing vibe that seems to be so popular with bands these days. i don't get it. i mean, you don't have to jump around and hang from the rafters, but at least do something to hold my interest, otherwise i could just stay home and listen to the cd (not that i own anything by interpol). it's a good thing i didn't actually pay to get in (the show was sold out, but as luck would have it, i ran into simone from blonde redhead outside the venue and he was nice enough to put me on the guest list). actually, it's a good thing i wasn't really there to see interpol anyway. |

goddamn it, where the fuck is spring? we've been getting nice weather one or two days a week (usually while i'm working), but i'm ready for the real deal here. i need my 65-degree days and more sunlight now, dammit! |

no more late night drunken entries about girls. as a matter of fact, i'm going to declare a personal moratorium on all posts about the opposite sex, 'cos i'm kinda through with that for a while.
in other news, it looks like i'm going to see versus in dc this friday night. that oughta be cool. it also looks like me and my current roommate are gonna split my former roommate's rent between us and not get a new roommate. this is a good thing for me, as it means i get two rooms, my own bathroom, and pretty much the rest of the apartment for less than $350. and since troy hardly leaves his room except to go to work or hang out with family on the weekends, it's practically like i'm living alone again. i like that. |

| well, now... |

been a while since i wrote anything here, but frankly, i don't give a shit, and nobody reads this thing anyway. was hoping to get tattooed this afternoon, but had to put it off for a couple of days. oh well, it'll be ready to show off at the rylo show this weekend. maybe that girl i made out with on new year's eve will be there. or not. whatever. |

just spent the past few minutes watching fireworks from my fire escape. i'd forgotten how much i enjoy that... |
|
|
| i'm bored. |
[Dec. 10th, 2004|07:20 pm] |
geez. the internet is even more boring that usual now. maybe i should go start drinking early tonight... |
|
|
| grumble. |
[Dec. 10th, 2004|06:37 pm] |
man, it feels like my shit is a bit less together than usual today. oh well, it's not like it's anything really important...
i think i'll figure it out soon... |
|
|
| wow. fucking wow. |

so... just got back from the Pixies show at the Convo center. fucking brilliant. absofuckinglutely brilliant. if i wanted to nitpick, there were a few fuckups, but on the whole... damn. maybe it's the fact that i had to wait 13 years to see the live for the second time, but it was fucking great... my voice is gonna be shot tomorrow from all the yelling... |
|
|
| yes. |
[Dec. 6th, 2004|02:50 pm] |
|
in just a few short hours i will going to see the pixies live for the second time... i can't fucking wait. this year has probably been the best in terms of quality shows since i lived in dc. more later, when i get home... |
|
|
| whoo. |

rode out to meesh's today to put my busted-ass laptop on ebay so i can have money to go see the pixies. hope it works... if i don't go to this show i'll be fucking bummed. c'mon nerds... buy my shit! |

i'm bored and lonely (what else is new?). it's raining and a little cold, but i think i'm gonna go to the taphouse anyway, just because...
nobody ever accused me of doing the smart things... |
|
|
| okay. yay. |

hm. well, it looks like my amp is actually working now... weird. i still probably need to get it serviced soon... hopefully sometime in dec. i think i'll stick with the el34's for now, tho. maybe later if i get my hands on a regular master volume protube head i might try the kt88's. |
|
|
| sigh. goddamnit. |

finally got my death by audio interstellar overdrive pedal (http://www.killerrockandroll.com/deathbyaudio), put new strings on the guitar after months of slacking, and my goddamn amp is not working. fuck. i thought it was just one of the inputs, but it looks like something a bit more serious. that's the last goddamn thing i need right now. guess that shop visit is a priority now... |

so... went to rva for a show last night with stephen, amy and sarah... ended up being quite a bit of fun. the bands were good & it was nice to hang out with friends...
random highlights:
scrub battle on x-men vs. street fighter with amy. the better masher won.
dancing with the very lovely and talented gretchen from terror at the opera during the show. i wish there were girls like her around here. she's like... rowrrr...
and lastly, some cute girl at sticky rice asked me if she could touch my ass. i believe her description was "like two biscuits". i was amused. and flattered. i guess i'm cute, or something... |

nothing much happened this weekend, which is fine by me. amy & sarah came down saturday night and we loitered downtown for a while. ran into that girl lindsay a couple of times this weekend but failed to ask for her phone number. i'll fix that, though.
the overdrive pedal showed up friday, finally got around to putting strings on the univox today. hopefully i'll get around to playing with it a bit this week. i still need to get a new guitar and a 4-12 cabinet. then there will be rock. oh yes... |
|
|
| if i had a dollar... |
[Nov. 14th, 2004|04:36 pm] |
for every time some cute girl said to me, "i like watching you sing", i have, well, a dollar. i should've asked her for one last night, i could've framed it.
sometimes, i guess it sucks a little less than usual to be me... |
|
|
| alright. |
[Nov. 12th, 2004|08:34 pm] |
after that little outburst, i feel compelled to make it up to my audience (snicker) and write something a bit more intelligent or at least coherent.
shit, i don't know what to say.
i found my fall jacket today. that's about it.
oh, shit... i still have to buy a fucking Pixies ticket.
gonna go drink now... |
